“The Heart is Infinite” by Amoda Maa
The heart is infinite—like a bottomless well.
The heart can absorb and allow everything—including what you perceive as a grievance, as an attack, as an offense.
The heart doesn’t reject anything, and neither does it invest itself in anything. Everything can be thrown into that well, and in that tenderness it is purified.
“Jesus and Buddha: Two Messengers of Light” from the Red Wing UU Community
Two sons of Wisdom, two sages and prophets
Two World teachers with hundreds of millions of followers.
Two moral and spiritual revolutionaries who changed everything in their times and much in ours.

"Relationship vs. Relating — Bringing Our Togetherness Back to Life" by Jeannie Zandi
By showing us who we are and how to live surrendered to what is, nondual wisdom can greatly minimize the suffering that is our common human affliction in a separation-based society.

Even the least “spiritual” client, who may not be interested in esoteric talk of one’s true nature as consciousness, is interested in suffering less, especially in the relationships that matter most. Here, I will explore the difference between the concept of relationship, which is born of conditioning and can only perpetuate the isolation and distress we feel inside of identification with a “me,” and the actual experience of moment-to-moment relating, which is our birthright and an expression of our natural state.
